From pankaj@cs.duke.edu Fri Sep 24 16:34:59 1999 Date: Mon, 13 Sep 1999 18:14:29 -0400 (EDT) From: Pankaj Kumar Agarwal To: DMA-LIST@nic.surfnet.nl, THEORY-A@listserv.nodak.edu Subject: [DMANET] SCG'00: Call for Videos CALL FOR VIDEOS 9th Annual Video Review of Computational Geometry to be presented at the Sixteenth Annual Symposium on Computational Geometry http://www.cs.ust.hk/tcsc/scg00.html June 12-14, 2000 Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Sponsored by ACM SIGACT and SIGGRAPH Videos are sought for a video review of computational geometry. Background This video review showcases the use of visualization in computational geometry for exposition and education, as an interface and a debugging tool in software development, and for the visual exploration of geometry in research. Algorithm animations, visual explanations of structural theorems, descriptions of applications of computational geometry, and demonstrations of software systems are all appropriate. Videos that accompany papers or communications submitted to the technical program committee are encouraged. Submissions Authors should send one preview copy of a videotape to the address below by February 13, 2000. The videotape should be at most eight minutes long (three to five minutes, preferred), and be in VHS NTSC or VHS PAL format. Each video tape must be accompanied by a one- or two-page description of the material shown in the video, and where applicable, the techniques used in the implementation. Please format descriptions following the guidelines for ACM proceedings. Additional material describing the contents of the videos, such as the full text of accompanying papers, may also be included. Textual material may be submitted electronically by e-mailing either the URL of a PostScript file (preferred) or the PostScript file itself to rudolf@mpi-sb.mpg.de. If electronic submission is impossible, authors should include five hardcopies of the accompanying text with their video. Videotapes and accompanying text should be sent to Rudolf Fleischer Department of Computer Science University of Waterloo Waterloo, Ontario, N2L 3G1 Canada Tel: (519) 888-4567 ext 2103 FAX: (519) 885-1208 For customs purposes, it is best to declare a value of $5. If you have questions, please contact the committee chair at rudolf@mpi-sb.mpg.de or (519) 888-4567 ext 2103. ********************************************************** * * Contributions to be spread via DMANET are submitted to * * DMANET@zpr.uni-koeln.de * * Replies to a message carried on DMANET should NOT be * addressed to DMANET but to the original sender.
